Depends. Did the threads tear out of the lid? If so, you could possibly drill it bigger, tap in new threads for an adapter and put a new valve in. Just checking, the gauge or the little rubber safety valve? If it is just the rubber safety plug, then yes, it should be possible to replace it. That's what it's there for.
